Bowtie extrodinare!



Just thought I'd swish around a photo of my latest project...bowties!

The one up there is the final size we decided on (note the pins), but here is the other I considered:


(too clowny)

I followed the pattern from Prudent Baby: here. I found it really simple and easy to follow - my only lamentation that the size (6 1/4" by 5 1/4") is huge. Hers are for little boys so I assumed I'd do the big one for my Boy, and it would be fine. I ended up with about 3" on either side too big!

Not a major deal though, just a bit frustrating. Can be chopped up for quilting though :)
